Hi All,
Does anyone know the research on students using laptops in college classrooms? Some of my undergrad students found in a survey that 50% of the students in the sample said they would not use a laptop in class if the Internet was not available. 50% said they only brought laptops to class for entertainment purposes. (Not sure how the individuals overlaps in each case, but have asked the students to do that analysis).
I'd like to follow up and find out about any larger surveys/qualitative studies on this topic.
Thanks.
